Meet Roxy

Last week we welcomed a new addition to the family. Meet Roxy! She was born 6/9/09. She has 4 sisters and they are all just bundles of energy. Roxy was so cute and has such personality, we just couldn't resist taking her home!

Here she is at about 4 weeks. Her eyes were still blue here.



Here is Roxy on her first day home (6 & 1/2 weeks). She wasn't concerned with leaving her family, she just liked playing with her ball!

Tiger on the other hand, wasn't very excited about Roxy coming home. She hid in the bedroom for the first few days, then we saw her in the living room & kitchen periodically for the next few day. She has finally warmed up to Roxy and will play with her and lick her. She will however, still growl and snap at time to time. She isn't used to something with such intense energy around!


The dogs have taken to Roxy really well. Here is Roxy trying to cuddle up to Jake. He is doing his best to ignore her and give himself a bath. However, Roxy has recently taken to attacking their tails, which they are not big fans of.


Here Roxy sleeps in daddy's arms. She tends to pass out in random cute positions.

And here she passed out in Nestor's (my dad) lap...

Even after we moved her to the cat bed she slept hard for a good hour or so!

She is defiently a joy to have around the house. She is just a ball of energy most of the time and then she passes out hard. I think she will be good for Tiger - giving her a campanion and hopefully giving her a playmate (and loose some weight in the process). One thing Roxy needs to quit though is pouncing on the bed at 6 in the morning!
